Tesla used to be the only game in town when it came to electric vehicles. That’s no longer the case. Musk is an idiot. Just check out Tom Voelk’s review of the Cadillac Lyric:

The Model 3/Y buyers are mostly the exact same yuppie crowd that used to lease a 3 series. No surprise they drive the same way. The new Model 3 even has non-traditional turn signal to ensure they are similarly disused. 

Musk is such a vile POS, I could never buy one of his MAGA mobiles. Mind you, douchebag Telsa driver isn’t helping at all. They’ve quickly taken the crown from BMW guy as the most reckless driver.

Markoff scored the goal, but I’m crediting you with an assist. 

OK, fine. S0 how ‘bout some research into what one of these Konas truly costs? Let’s see some numbers with insurance premiums rolled into the monthly cost of this EV. Would it be $500? $600? Just how onerous does insurance nowadays make EV ownership? Rates from State Farm or Farmers for various locations around the…

Jesus that’s a face only a mother could love.

If it’s tied to Musk, I won’t believe it unless I see it myself on a self-contained system inside a faraday cage.

I have been working with teenagers for 25 years. I have learned to never underestimate the stupidity of people. 

Yup, that’ll happen.

How does the bottom of Elon’s boot taste?
